Funding for this program is currently pending review by the National Science Foundation. An update on the funding status of the program should be available by mid-January and will be posted here. Applicants will be notified of the funding status once confirmation has been received.
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln Department of Chemistry plans to offer an REU with a scientific focus centered around ten weeks of hands-on research in either chemical synthesis or explosives chemistry and detection.
